The speaker of this passage is not asserted. This passage speaks ABOUT Rudolf Steiner in the third person, so it is most likely a report, minutes, or an editorial summary rather than his own words. Verbatim, but confirm the speaker before attributing anything here to him.
Record: unknown. How this text was taken down (shorthand transcript, listeners' notes or manuscript) is not on record here. Unknown is not an assurance of a stenogram: check the edition's own notes before resting an argument on one word.
Anthroposophy is based on the analogy of mathematics. Dr. Steiner explained how we project mathematics into nature. This has already been established in Greek science, and in fact the ideal of mathematical science is at least to mathematize nature, as they said in ancient times. But in what sense can we even talk about this? That is precisely the problem.
